- Descripción:
- The details of the rear or eastern wall of the garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum) illustrate the contrast between the ascetic and the surasundari (celestial damsel). The ascetic (on the left) is characterized by a substantial jatabhara (braided hairdo) atop his head, a lengthy beard, and a moustache. His elongated earlobes signify the mahapurusha lakshana (markers of a great individual). His bare upper body is adorned with a broad yajnopavita (sacred thread), with a langot (loincloth) covering his lower body. Despite the apparent damage and raised position of his right hand, his left-hand holds an unidentified object. The damaged surasundari figure, on his right, stands gracefully with a voluptuous body adorned with exquisite ornaments. Though her raised right hand is damaged, she holds a fine scarf in her left hand near her belly, draping it around her arms. Her lower body is covered by a translucent garment so delicate that her body underneath is visible. A small creature is depicted climbing her left leg. In stark contrast to the tranquil and composed posture of the ascetic, the surasundari vividly embodies sensual beauty. Notably, there is a kalasha (pitcher) placed at the bottom near her feet, surrounded by foliage symbolizing abundance and growth, mirroring the symbolism of the female body.

- Descripción:
- In a niche on the southern wall, of the garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum) of the Kaner-ki-Putli Temple, a male figure is depicted. Unfortunately, the figure is damaged, with the head entirely missing. Both upper arms are broken, while the figure holds a kamandalu (water carrier or pot) in the left hand and makes a varadahasta (boon-giving gesture) with the right hand. At the base of the niche, a broken ram-like animal with horns is visible. Based on the vahana (mount), attributes, and gestures, this figure can be recognized as Agni (one of the deities of cardinal directions). Adjacent to Agni, there is a male figure that stands out from the others. This figure features curly, raised hair and a beard, but unfortunately, the face has been eroded. The upper body is bare and adorned with jewellery, while the lower body is covered by a distinctive triangular loin cloth. An antaravastra (inner garment) is visible beneath the loin cloth. The figure is draped with a scarf wrapped around the arms, and although the broken object held in his two hands is now incomplete, the visible middle part resembles a stick. Notably, this figure is unique because of the distinctive dressing style and footwear, suggesting him to be a foreigner.

- Descripción:
- The jangha (wall) of the Kaner-ki-Putli Temple has central offsets flanked by projections and recesses. The niches of the central offsets on all three sides of the garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum) are presently empty. These niches may have originally been adorned with depictions of deities. The remaining projected and recessed sections are intricately carved with depictions of minor deities, including dikapalas (deities of cardinal directions), Shaiva ascetics, and female figures.
